The use of an open plan design facilitates a fluid spatial experience, effortlessly connecting various living zones, fostering an overall sense of unity and coherence.
Editor’s Note: The home is the epitome of abundant minimalism, with a subtle intention behind every stroke yet never subdued. The POP wainscot, fabrics, and indoor greens add layers to the white living room walls, with hints of wood emerging slowly from the corners as one traverses, ending with the breathtaking interplay of light and shadow on the terrace. – Gopika Pramod
